Love my dentist but hate my teeth

I got some fillings done today. Another $300. I totaled up how much I've spent on my teeth just this year alone, and it came to over $900. Add in babysitting money, and it comes to $1,000. ON MY TEETH.

But that number will grow. Apparently, my insurance only covers one crown per tooth every five years. Since my incompetent hey-brah complete loser all-of-the-above dentist in Hawaii did a piss-poor job the first time, of course it would need to be replaced. Taking the crown off destroyed it and it wasn't salvagable, so I guess I just need to get on the phone with the insurance company and tell them that they need to take the claim.

If it doesn't work out, I'm looking at a bill of over $1,500. Plus, I'm pretty sure I owe just a little bit more from today, but the nice girls that work there just let me pay half until the insurance adjusts the total. *sigh* I might need to start selling the boys on Ebay for this... :P JK.

What kills me is that this all could have been taken care of in Hawaii, but it wasn't because that stupid dentist wasn't doing his job. It could have been done while Hubby was on deployment, or while I was in NH (so my mom could watch LB), or any other time we were there and couldn't do anything because Hubby was always at work.

Pearl Family Dental in Moanalua, you suck, bigtime. I hate you. And I will let all my military friends know just how badly you screwed me over and f-ed up my front tooth. Beware the wrath of a Navy wife scorned!
